← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when normalization of an atom's wave function fails?
A)Probability density is not conserved✓
B)Energy levels will become degenerate
C)Heisenberg uncertainty principle violated
D)Electron spin becomes undefined
💡 Explanation
If the integral of the squared wave function does not equal one, then probability normalization fails because the total probability of locating the electron is not unity; therefore, probability density violates conservation, rather than causing degeneracy or affecting the uncertainty relation.
